Maya Rudolph, BFFS With Dog That Dug Up Human Head In Hollywood Hills

Funnywoman Maya Rudolph stopped by the Conan set Monday night to chat about Oprah, Brangelina and her hit NBC show Up All Night with host Conan O'Brien.

TV Junkie: It's All About Conan

TV Junkie: It's All About Conan

What could be more important tonight than the debut of Conan O'Brien's new show, "Conan", on TBS at 11pm. Books have literally been written in to tell the story of how O'Brien got to this point in his career. Sure he's got Seth Rogen and Jack White guesting but they're not the reason to tune in tonight. It's no surprise that Letterman and Leno have lined up some heavy hitters as guests, from Han Solo to The Terminator but they won't hold a candle to Conan's storming of the late night airwaves. more ›

TV Junkie: Full Episodes of Conan Will Be Available Online; Taking a Break From Reality

TV Junkie: Full Episodes of Conan Will Be Available Online; Taking a Break From Reality

It was kind of disappointing to click onto the Yahoo! TV News page earlier today to have 1/3 of the stories be crime-related. From David Cassidy's DUI to the report of a contestant of "The Bachelorette" being found dead off of Route 74. While we're not sure if an actual human maintains that page for Yahoo! or if it's assembled by content tags, we're not sure if the connections between criminal activity and TV shows are on the increase, if they're blown out of proportion, or if, in some cases [think Charlie Sheen, Heidi Montag, etc.] these situations happen as part of some cynical PR programs. Were there always this many drunk/deranged idiots involved in showbiz or has showbiz, in an effort to appeal to the lowest common denominator, built itself around these debased antics? It appears to be the latter. more ›

Orange Alert: West Coast To Be Terrorized By Conan Blimp

Orange Alert: West Coast To Be Terrorized By Conan Blimp

In anticipation and promotion of his return to television (Nov 8/TBS), Conan O'Brien has taken to the atmosphere in a bright orange blimp. Until now, only the East Coast was forced to suffer this aerial trauma, but an announcement earlier confirmed our greatest fear, the Conan blimp is coming to the West Coast. Blimps are terrifying. This emotion is best expressed in the 2005 cathartic classic, The Blimp Song. more ›

Conan Says He'll Stay in L.A. for Cable Show, Will Appear on '60 Minutes'

Conan Says He'll Stay in L.A. for Cable Show, Will Appear on '60 Minutes'

When Conan O'Brien took over for Jay Leno, he and his team all moved from New York City to here. Now without a network job and a new show coming to TBS, where is he going? At his stage show last Saturday--coincidentally at the Gibson Amphitheater, just a few hundred yards away from his old studio--he said he's staying in Los Angeles. That news was announced earlier this month, but by gaging the audience's reaction, it was news to most. more ›

Conan, Live on Stage in Los Angeles!! [Updated]

Conan, Live on Stage in Los Angeles!! [Updated]

Well, looks like the rumors were true. Conan O'Brien is touring and he's bringing his Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television Tour to Los Angeles, which is described as "a night of music, comedy, hugging, and the occasional awkward silence (the buzz about this is huge and the website has appeared to crash)." He'll be hitting up the Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal CityWalk on Saturday, April 24th for an evening of fun and many, many laughs. Universal is, of course, where his old Late-night NBC studio is. more ›

Conan, Live on Stage?

Conan, Live on Stage?

TV Junkie: Haiti Benefit; Conan's Last Tonight Show; The SAG Awards

TV Junkie: Haiti Benefit; Conan's Last Tonight Show; The SAG Awards

Tonight is the last episode of the Conan O'Brien version of "The Tonight Show" on NBC before it reverts back to the Jay Leno version. We predicted there would be problems with putting Leno on at 10pm as far back as December of 2008 but we never dreamed that NBC would make such a complete and utter screw up of things. How much more does Jeff Zucker have to screw up before the board cans his ass (and throw Dick "The Dick" Ebersol out while you're at it)? more ›

Conan's Last Show is Tomorrow Night

And so it ends. Around 1 a.m. this morning, Late Night Show host Conan O'Brien and NBC signed a deal, getting him around $32 million and some $12 million for his staff. Tomorrow night is is last show, but his deal allows him to go back on TV eight months from now. Jay Leno will return on March 1st with a show from 11:35 p.m. to 12:35 p.m. After that, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" will air from 12:35 to 1:35 a.m. Tomorrow night, Conan will say goodbye--at least temporarily--with guests Will Ferrell, Tom Hanks, and musical guest Neil Young. more ›
